Control strategy for battery-supported photovoltaic systems aimed at peak load reduction
Zhuravchak, Ruslan; Nord, Natasa; Brattebø, Helge (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The use of photovoltaic (PV) technologies is one of the key means for achieving the balance between operational power demand and generation in net Zero Energy Buildings (nZEBs). However, direct use of PV power on-site is ... -
Cost evaluation and life cycle assessment of biogas upgrading technologies for an anaerobic digestion case study in the United States
Hauser, Marina Jennifer (Master thesis, 2017)Globally, around one third of the food produced is lost or wasted. Instead of landfilling or incinerating, organic municipal solid waste has increasingly been used in anaerobic digestion in order to produce biogas. The ... -

Dynamic metabolism modeling as a decision-support tool for urban water utilities applied to the upstream of the water system in Oslo, Norway
Govindarajan, Venkatesh; Ugarelli, Rita Maria; Sægrov, Sveinung; Brattebø, Helge (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The paper presents, first, the ‘Dynamic Metabolism Model’ (DMM), developed by the authors, followed by an application to the city of Oslo, capital city of Norway. The time period considered for the analysis is 2013-2043. ... -
Dynamic modelling of national dwelling stocks: Understanding phenomena of historical observed energy demand and future estimated energy savings in the Norwegian dwelling stock
Sandberg, Nina Holck (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:36, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Residential buildings are responsible for 24% of the global final energy consumption, and the housing sector is important for future mitigation of greenhouse gases. Scenario models are important tools for estimation of the ... -
Dynamics of energy and carbon emissions in residential building stocks.: The role of solutions for single-family houses built between 1980-1990.
Baltruszewicz, Marta (Master thesis, 2014)The objective of this study is to assess the environmental impacts of renovating an exemplary single-family house built between 1980 and 1990 to the TEK10 or NS3700 (passive house) standard. The scope of the analysis is ... -
Dynamics of energy and carbon emissions in residential building stocks: - The role of solutions for multi-family houses and apartment blocks
Folstad, Marie (Master thesis, 2014)Three building typologies are analyzed in this report, where the first one is apartment blocks built before 1956, the second one is apartment blocks built in the period 1956-1970, and the last typology is apartment blocks ... -
Dynamics of energy and carbon emissions in residential building stocks: The role of solutions for multi-family houses and apartment blocks
Skaran, Anja Myreng (Master thesis, 2014)A decrease in energy consumption is an important part of the effort to reduce fossil emissions. Buildings contribute to a considerable share of the energy consumption in Norway, mainly because of the cold climate and low ... -
